Through Ruin and Fire

Intertwined male/female vocals over warm 90s-style acoustic guitar and airy ambient pads, gentle classical strings swelling in the choruses, Verses start intimate and nostalgic, low-key fingerpicking; chorus hits with powerful harmonies and open chords, Bridge strips back to near a cappella then blooms into a final, soaring duet, reverb-kissed and cinematic, ambient, male vocals, female vocals, classical, romantic

[Verse 1] Chalk on our hands Bare feet in the yard You drew the sun I traced the stars You brewed bright dreams In jars on the shelf I chased a shadow Of a man who fled himself [Chorus] Through ruin and fire Through ashes and stone I won’t let you fight Any storm alone If darkness devours If all hope is gone This is our promised love We walk the wreckage on and on (oh) [Verse 2] You stained your fingers With silver and smoke Learning to turn Every wound into hope I followed echoes Of a name I shared Found out my blood Was the curse he feared [Pre-Chorus] When I cracked the sky Let the black tide roar You heard my name In the trembling floor (hey) [Chorus] Through ruin and fire Through ashes and stone I won’t let you fight Any storm alone If darkness devours If all hope is gone This is our promised love We walk the wreckage on and on [Bridge] [Male vocal Soft] I told you run Leave me to the flame If I lose myself Don’t speak my name [Female vocal Answering] I broke every vow You begged me to keep I stepped in the circle Pulled you from the deep (oh) [Together] If it burns us both Then we burn as one Hands laced tight Till the night is done [Chorus] Through ruin and fire Through ashes and stone I won’t let you fight Any storm alone If darkness devours If all light is gone This is our promised love We hold the dark till dawn [Outro] So let the world fall Let kingdoms divide Wherever you’re breaking I’m breaking by your side (yeah)
